Ochaya-House in Shimabara
Shigenori Uoya | Architects and Associates |
- Outline
- The teahouse building in Shimabara, Kyoto, which was once a flower town, was renovated for the purpose of accommodating friends and relatives and for future use as a home-stay. In addition to an inn and a cafe bar, the owner's residence and a complex facility are planned near the site, which will revitalize the alleyways and streets of Shimabara. The building is a typical style of teahouse architecture, with a full-length opening on the second floor, an edge that extends from the outer wall, and three rows of tatami mats inside the edge.
